casting all opinions & facts aside re running 13x7's, what do all prefer
the softline or the classic? (on a round nose, with sports pack arches, guards have been cut for 13's)

Softline

Classic

softline, but with rounded arches such as sportpacs.

Got to be classic, and go for miglia arches.

But theyd look better on a clubman. I dont think you can beat 10s on a roundnose.

I personally think that every Minis is supposed to be unique - so I'd go for the softline because they're different to the majority :lol:

I also think that they will suit the whole "rounded" feel of a roundnose with the soft curves of the Sportspacks. The genuine Sportspack rims were all soft curved to.

i need to stop opening this thread while wearing jeans >8o or those softlines should have a censored sticker...

ANYWAY .. are these available as a semi-deep dish? .. and being 7's would that create more fitting problems?

Deeper the dish, the bigger the flares needed.

they are available in a 6", which doesn't have the extended 'dish' but look deeper than the standard 6" due to the softline edge

fitment is not a problem as the guards have already been cut for previous 13x7's
